At first I didn't notice, the spots of pinky red on the photo were enough to say "blood" and that these kids were shot or killed by conventional weapons. I was more revulsed by the casualness of the "trophy-kill" snap. It suddenly hit me, what I was looking at was the result of a Chemical Attack of some sort. There are no wounds on any of the bodies. No pools of blood. No shattered frames hit by high calibre guns. I'm not a forensic toxicologist but the demeanour of the bodies suggests death by asphyxiation. They all choked to death. Remember the images from Halabja? No they didn't die somewhere else and were moved, they died right there. How do I know? Third in we see a little girl who kicked off her pink slippers as she writhed in agony on the ground gasping for a breath. The boy furthest away in close up reveals him in a convulsed state, a death-throe similar to the gas victims from ww2. ... read full story / add a comment

Lies! Damned Lies! And Statistics! This certainly applies to this survey that claims that Ireland is the best country in the world to live in. Ireland the best country in the world to live in! Come on get a grip! Are these people for real? What planet are they living on? Are these economists, businesspeople and their rich friends so detacthed from the stark reality of daily life for most people that they believe such stuff? ... read full story / add a comment

There is need now to build a mass non-violent movement toward a single democratic non-national state, a “politics from below” for a sustainable just future for Israelis and Palestinians, forging bonds of ta'ayush (togetherness) in common struggle, the return of refugees in massive numbers – and inside Israel moving beyond apartheid ethnocracy and its oligarchy. ... read full story / add a comment

Thousands of drugs passed safe in animals have been withdrawn or banned due to their effect on human health. 95% of drugs passed by animal tests are immediately disgarded as useless or dangerous to humans. At least 450 different methods exist with which can replace animal experiments. So, why is animal testing still legal? ... read full story / add a comment

As we come into another Fox and Stag hunting season, I can't help but think back to the last season and wonder if the Board of Education have included Bloodsports in the school curriculum. I have regularly witnessed many children participating in hunts throughout the country, even though it was clearly not a public or a school holiday. Surely it would be more beneficial to a child's intellectual well-being to follow the same educational system that a normal well-adjusted child would follow in order to become a normal upstanding member of society in later life, rather than turning into the violent blood junkies that certain members of society have become? ... read full story / add a comment

We held a vigil for the dead at Shannon Airport on 31st October 04. This was promptly ignored or ridiculed by the mainstream media. We expected as much, water off a duck's back etc. However, I have taken exception to the misrepresentation of the purpose of our vigil by one periodical, The Limerick Leader. Below is the offending section of Editorial and my open letter in reply. ... read full story / add a comment
